Breadcake is a term for a cob used in Yorkshire and mainly in Sheffield.
It derived from when kids asked their mothers for a cake but all they had is a roll. They passed off a roll sometimes with icing and called it a breadcake. The kids fell for this ruse and to this day cobs are called breadcakes. True fact.
